tanuki_workExifTool is a Perl script (with an optional command-line executable wrapper for Mac OS X or Windows). It can read the metadata stored within various file formats, including EXIF, GPS, IPTC, XMP, JFIF, GeoTIFF, ICC Profile, Photoshop IRB, FlashPix, AFCP and ID3. As well as the "maker notes" of many digital cameras. Believe it or not this is still being updated.

paulchandler# the next line adds tags X Y and Z to the file
# the -m tells it to ignore any minor problems and "do it anyway"
# the -overwrite_original stops backup jpg files being created
# the -v gives a bit of output, so that it seems that the program is working
exiftool -overwrite_original -v -m -XPKeywords="X;Y;Z" -Comment="X;Y;Z" filename.jpg
# the -all= tag blitzes all tags, including any data on one tag
# which is upsetting exiftool, meaning that it won't update any
# use of -m seems unnecessary under such circumstances!
exiftool -overwrite_original -v -all= -XPKeywords="X;Y;Z" -Comment="X;Y;Z" filename.jpg
# the following convuluted syntax appends tags Z Y to the existing tags
exiftool -overwrite_original -v -m "-XPKeywords<$XPKeywords ;Z; Y" "-Comment<$Comment ;Z; Y" filename.jpg
# the following line pulls the comment in from a text file
exiftool -overwrite_original -v -m "-Comment<=myfile.txt" filename.jpg
# the following line exports the comment from a jpg
# the s3 means that the name of the field (Comment) is not printed
exiftool -s3 -Comment filename.jpg > filename.txt
# will extract comments to filename.txt
# don't include the -v (verbose), as all the diagnostics will also
# be written to the file!
exiftool -overwrite_original -v -m -s3 -Comment -w txt filename.jpg
# the following is a batch file which will import comments to selected files from similar-named text files

Many command-line options are available to allow you to access a wide range of features. Run exiftool with no arguments for a complete list of available options with examples.
-
to allow it to be run by typing "
exiftool" at the command line. -
If the exiftool executable ("
exiftool.pl" or "exiftool.exe") is not in the current directory or your system PATH, then its directory must be specified on the command line (ie. by typing "c:\path_to_exiftool\exiftool.pl" or "c:\path_to_exiftool\exiftool"). -
Verbose and HtmlDump Output
-
use the
-soption to print the tag names instead of descriptions for all information in a file -
Tag names sometimes differ from their descriptions. Use the
-scommand-line option to see the actual tag names instead of the descriptions shown when extracting information -
The "-tagsFromFile" Option
-
A special ExifTool option allows copying tags from one file to another. The command-line syntax for doing this is "
-tagsFromFile SRCFILE". Any tags specified after this option on the command line are extracted from source file and written to the destination file. If no tags are specified, then all writable tags are copied
